We all dream of a beautiful Indian summer after these rainy summer months... and -why not?- with the tropical flavors of an IPA: the Frouze Connection, a collab with Le Détour brewery in Montpellier.
Yes, we brewed an IPA, and yes, we're still ourselves! It's the beauty of collabs: to brew something we wouldn't necessarily brew by ourselves!
So, the Frouze Connection is a non-refermented IPA, its saturation is obtained in the tank. It's massively hopped and dry-hopped, but only with European hops. It's fruity and refreshing, but it's not a fruit juice: a real beer instead, with a resinous side to it and a nice bitterness! Its hazy character comes from the oats we added, which also make it pleasantly mellow.
FYI: it's our French friends, together with our French brewer Paul, who are responsible for its sarcastic name...

@BXL Beerfest. Hazy yellow colour, white foam. Nose of tropicel fruit, citrussy, mango flavours. Dry and bitter finish, typical de la Senne. Good!
